In a multiyear effort involving three national laboratories from across the United States, researchers have successfully built and tested a powerful new magnet based on an advanced superconducting ...

A group collaborating across four American laboratories completed the first successful tests of a superconducting coil in preparation for the future high-luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron ...

Researchers at the National Synchrotron Light Source II (NSLS-II), a U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) Office of Science user facility at DOE's Brookhaven National Laboratory, depend on the facility's ...

A trio of national U.S. labs have built and tested a powerful new magnet based on an advanced superconducting material. The eight-ton magnet—about as long as a semi-truck trailer—set a record for ...

Well, it's hit Slashdot now, so it won't take long to make the rounds. The Large Hadron Collider project at CERN suffered something of a setback on Tuesday, when, during a test of one of the ...
